Of course I named the show after the great album by the Smittens and I pay homage to the band by using a clip of their song 11:11 for my theme. I hope the band doesn't mind, but when I have talked to various members of the band after shows they seem like nice people whom I think would be good with it.

I also use this name for my DJ night happening occasionally at the Jane Bond in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.

Note that the links to shows older than 6 months might not be working, if you really want those shows please send me an email and I can get them to you. (Note that prior to 2018 I called my podcast FireballXL5, so don't be confused if you look at an old setlist)

Special thanks to Jeff Woods for finding my a place to host my mp3s!


September 18, 1998

These are the lists from the first two shows at the 6-8 pm timeslot.  The
most pleasant surprise has been the Belle and Sebastian CD, it seems
everybody is talking about them, they are in every magazine and David
Wisdom was talking about them on Radiosonic on CBC last week. They are
also playing Toronto in October.

Note 1: This set was because I had interviewed Geoffrey Kelly of Spirit of
the West that day and asked him what he was listening to and he went on
and on about the Lucinda Williams new CD. The rest of the set were people
he mentioned in the interview.
